HELL’S KITCHEN returns to FOX tonight for the third episode of season 12. In it the remaining 18 chefs compete in a physical challenge involving pigs and potatoes. The winners earn a luxurious day on a yacht, while the losers must bathe the livestock from the challenge.
On last week’s episode the 19 remaining chefs were challenged to a tricycle relay race, in which they had to work in pairs to complete basic culinary tasks. The winners earned a trip to San Francisco, while the losers went carrot picking at a farm. The winners were the Blue Team, the men. Service was so bad that Chef Ramsay thought bought teams lost and they both had to nominate two people. However at the elimination Chef Ramsay said there was one person who has showed him no passion and notleadership. The Chef told NICOLE she had to leave the kitchen immediately. She was pissed she threw him the jacket and said as she walks out, he can kick her fat ass. LOL… The Chef told the remaining Chef they better do good or he is going to start getting rid of them faster. Chef Ramsay then says he was not looking for a line cook but if he was he still would not hire Nicole, she was useless. Did you watch last week’s episode? If you missed it we have a recap right here for you.
On tonight’s episode Chef Ramsay teaches the chefs a lesson in teamwork when he puts them through a physical challenge involving pigs and potatoes, but the competition really heats up when the team competition continues in the kitchen. The winning team earns a luxurious day on a yacht while the losing team is tasked with bathing their new livestock friends. Later, a disorganized dinner service disappoints Chef Ramsay, and once again an entire team is kicked out of the kitchen.
